The contemporary term is made up of the prefix "a/an-" meaning 'not', "ego" for 'self', and 'sexual'. Hence, "aegosexual" or "anegosexual" literally means "sexual without self". Aegosexuals may have sexual fantasies, view sexual content, or masturbate, but typically feel little to no sexual attraction or desire to engage in sexual intercourse. Many aegosexuals fantasize about sex from a third-person perspective.<ref name="History of Aegosexuality">{{Cite web |url=http://www.themichigangayly.com/features/history-of-aegosexuality |title=History of Aegosexuality |author=Edha Shirodkar |date=2021-02-01 |work=[http://www.themichigangayly.com The Michigan Gayly] |archivedate=20220214172205}}</ref><ref>https://www.slanglang.net/slang/lgbtq/aegosexual/</ref> |

Individuals who use this term are affected by sex in the media to varying degrees, and may try to avoid its presence altogether. This term should not be confused with 'sex-negative', which means finding sex immoral.<ref name="WWU">{{Cite web|url=https://wp.wwu.edu/westernaces/what-is-asexuality/|title=What is Asexuality?}}</ref><ref name="OQS">{{Cite web|url=https://ourqueerstories.com/being-an-apothisexual/|title=Being an Apothisexual|author=Flannigan, Amy Maria|publisher=Our Queer Stories|date=2015-09-25}}</ref> |

||
| − | [[File:Asexual Flag.svg|thumb|The asexual pride flag]] |
||
| − | The asexual flag was created collaboratively within the community in 2010. The first three stripes (black, gray, and white) represent a gradient from asexuality and gray-asexuality to [[Allosexual|allosexuality]], based on the symbolism of the AVEN triangle. The fourth stripe, purple, represents community.<ref name="Aexual Flag">{{Cite web |url=https://www.asexuality.org/en/topic/53435-asexual-flag-and-the-winner-is |title=Asexual Flag: And the winner is.....}}</ref><ref name="The Ace Flag">{{Cite web |url=https://asexualagenda.wordpress.com/2018/02/21/the-ace-flag-a-history-and-celebration/ |title=The Ace Flag: A History and Celebration}}</ref> |

||
| − | An alternative asexual spectrum flag design was posted to Tumblr on July 25, 2020, by Potion of the ''Flag Archive'' blog. It has four equal-sized horizontal stripes, and they suggested the following meanings for the colors: dark blue for community, its history, and solidarity; purple for asexuality in all variations and personal labels, pink for self-determination, pride, and acceptance; cream for diversity in experiences and types of attraction.<ref name="theflagarchive: asexual spectrum">{{Cite web |url=https://theflagarchive.tumblr.com/post/624655680467599360/asexual-spectrum-flag-while-i-like-the-asexual |title=Asexual spectrum flag! |author=Potion |date=2020-07-25 |archivedate=20220221144313}}</ref> |
